USB 3.0 Flash Drive By Super Talent – The First
GetUSB has been waiting for this announcement for about 8 months now. Super Talent just announced the first [of what we know] USB 3.0 flash drive. Wow.
GetUSB Dealz: Chestnut Hill iPod Speaker System $249
Chestnut Hill has long put out their sound systems as a premium product. If you are in the market for a premium iPod player, then consider the George Audio Speaker System – CHS40001. Currently it’s available for $249 and free shipping!
Ion Audio USB Tape Express
If you are old enough to remember those ‘Foreigner’ pre-digital cassettes, you’ll also remember making your “Top 40” by duping the Saturday morning radio show with Rick Dees. That’s why you’ve got a box of C60s collecting dust in the cupboard. So why not set them free with the USB Tape Express.
USB 3.0 Might Hit The Breaks
We’ve been talking about USB 3.0 for almost one year now and last week we hear the maker, Intel, is looking to put on the breaks. This isn’t the first time Intel has rallied the industry, gotten chip makers to support it, then corporate shut it down via lack of integration [Wireless USB].
Impressive Porsche USB Drive
Porsche is shipping a limited number of Panamera USB flash drives and we’ve got the pictures. It’s clearly a drive with a great amount of detail and pristine looking Porches logo on the USB cap.
Sliders for your iPod
We know the Nano and iPod Touch don’t come with speakers, so it was nice to see the latest product roll-out from Green Power. Their sliding speaker system is quite nice, compact for the iPod line. A miniUSB port makes the connection between the iPod and the speaker system. Green Power reports a long playback of nearly 12 hours, but I find that hard to believe because my iPod barely stays charged for 12 hours using the ear buds.
USB Harmonica is 2GBs Of Sweet Soul
Backyard Brand is looking to coin a new phrase with their FlashHarp USB drive. I’m classifying this under hand crafted USB because it’s a relatively simple mod of a harmonica to include a USB drive. Granted, Backyard came up with the idea, so props to them.
5 Ways To Improve iPhone Which No One Has Mentioned – Yet
I’ve read several articles about how to improve the iPhone, most notable are CNET’s comments and iSmashPhone comments. Both articles have good ideas about improving the iPhone software, but there are five user improvements which I would like to humbly suggest. To me, these are fundamental improvements for an everyday user. What do you think? 1) How many times have you read an email chain with an attachment? With the small screen of the iPhone even the shortest email requires you to scroll. With a long email you must scroll forever to get to the attachment. Why can’t Apple make a “paper clip” icon at the top to jump directly to it?
Windows 7 Offers Direct Download For Bootable USB Recovery Drive
There is no doubt Netbooks are becoming more and more popular. The problem with Netbooks if your computer goes south, no optical drive is available to restore your computer. You either have to A) buy an optical drive, burn a bootable backup or B) call the manufacturer and request a disc.
“The ‘Windows 7 USB/DVD Download Tool’ is used when you buy a down-loadable version of the software from Microsoft’s online store. During the download process, buyers are given the option of creating a bootable USB stick or burning a DVD.”So now the question becomes, should a user be required to Continue Reading
USB Duplicator Movie Trailer – Say What?
If Nexcopy were to make a movie about USB duplicators and data loading USB flash drives, this would be the movie trailer to draw in attention.
Clearly, it would be “the most boring” movie in the world, but I’ll have to admit the movie trailer is quite impressive given the mundane product.
Nexcopy did a good job of putting a unique spin on their product announcement for the new 40 and 60 port USB duplicators via a movie trailer. The 1 minute video gives you just enough information to pique your interest, yet doesn’t bore you enough to click away.
The high definition version is posted on YouTube, but you’ll get the point from this:

USB Transfer Cable For Windows 7
In Feb of 2007 Belkin introduces their USB transfer cable to get from XP to Vista. Now Belkin has their USB transfer cable to get you from Vista to Windows 7. From everything we’ve heard and experienced, we expect nothing less than a mad rush for users to get away from Vista and try anything new.
Intel’s Marketing Push For USB 3.0
Intel is making an interesting marketing move these days with positioning the “Father of USB” as one of Intel’s best performing “Rock Stars.” You have may have seen the Intel commercial I posted several weeks ago. You may have seen that same commercial on TV [as I did] and now we have Ajay Bhatt, the Father of USB, on the Conan O’Brian show. Clearly Intel is making a push for the general public to pick up on USB and it’s newer technology USB 3.0.
